alberta_beef:WhippingBoy: RIM is a solid Canadian company, much like NorTel and Corel.

Corel is still solidly in business, and in the black...

Nortel used to have one of their larger buildings down the road from my high school. They used to come in a few times a year under the guise of "boosting interest in engineering" while endlessly bragging about the huge campus they were going to build within the next few years. Fast forward 6 years and I'm moving furniture and computers out of that building and loading it into moving trucks or dumpsters.
